This is very easy, and delicious. Took it to a family get-together and it disappeared quickly, and people asked for the recipe. The first time I made it, I used a red pepper and a yellow pepper; the green pepper was way too expensive at my supermarket. I also cut back on the amount of the peppers that I add: approximately half of the green and half of the red. This will be a favorite.

Melt In Your Mouth Chicken Pie

Reviewed: Jun. 16, 2009

I didn't care for the eggs. That seemed out-of-place to me. Otherwise, it was okay. Husband liked it.

Grandma's Rhubarb Torte

Reviewed: Jun. 10, 2009

This was very good, and a bit different. A great way to use up an abundance of rhubarb. Shared w/ in-laws and they loved it. Leftovers were a nice treat the next day, too.

Ground Beef Shepherd's Pie

This was good, a great combination of meat/vegetables/potatoes. Husband and kids liked it. Did need a bit of salt. And I added more cheese.

This was "okay". We will stick with our favorite coffeecake recipe from a local hotel.

Perfectly Moist Irish Wheaten Bread

Reviewed: Apr. 2, 2009

This was so good, and very "authentic" Irish! I will make this frequently--it's so quick and easy. I did as another reviewer, and mixed it in my Kitchen Aid mixer with the bread hook attachment.

Irish Soda Farls

Reviewed: Mar. 22, 2009

Absolutely loved these. Quickly made them right before dinner and served warm with honey and jam. They did take longer than I expected on the stove, so I put them in the oven for a few more minutes. (Used a cast iron skillet.) Sliced lengthwise to make 8 slices. I told my parents about my newest "favorite" recipe, and my 100% Irish Dad said, "I'll have to stop over for breakfast sometime." My husband and kids loved them,too. One small problem was that a few of them got too browned on one side, but nothing that posed a problem. Still absolutely delicious. This is real authentic Irish to me.

Swiss Chicken Casserole II

Reviewed: Mar. 12, 2009

This was pretty good for an easy meal. Cooked in crock pot on high for about 4 hours. I used cornbread stuffing mix, but will use herb stuffing mix in the future.

Ninety Minute Cinnamon Rolls

Reviewed: Mar. 10, 2009

These were easy to make, and "okay". But we weren't too crazy about the huge amount of filling. In the future, I will do my usual filling of sugar, cinnamon, and a bit of brown sugar. I will use this recipe when I want a quicker cinnamon roll. Otherwise, we much prefer our family recipe of Potato Cinnamon Buns. Also, I baked them in a 9 x 13 pan, rather than the muffin pan. Just seemed easier for me to stick to my usual method.

Tasty Spaghetti Sauce

Reviewed: Feb. 6, 2009

This was okay with a few adjustments. I took the advice of others and decreased the spices. 1 t. salt, 1/4 t. pepper, 1/2 t. each of the thyme, basil, rosemary, and marjoram. Husband and kids liked it; would have been too spicy for us otherwise.

Country Morning Cake

Reviewed: Jan. 29, 2009

This was "okay". I prefer my recipe that has more sour cream and butter and is way more moist! Nevertheless, it was a treat for my husband and kids on a school morning.

Delicious Black Bean Burritos

We weren't real crazy about these. Maybe next time, I will add tomatoes, cheddar cheese and salsa to the filling...That's what my kids usually like.

Baked Beef Stew

Okay, but I wasn't real crazy about the bread in it. I think I'll stick with my recipe which is similar.

Baked Ziti III

Reviewed: Nov. 9, 2008

Okay, but I think it was a bit too "cheesy". Next time I will use less cheese, and also put in the 9x13 pan and a smaller pan as well. The 9x13 was full to the brim and I did not add all the sauce. Just put a bit on top of each serving. Plenty of leftovers from our family of 7. Would make a good casserole for a potluck.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge

Reviewed: Sep. 25, 2008

I would have liked this to have more of a chocolate-peanut butter taste, and more creamy. I did add a bit more butter, and some vanilla. It did not have the "grainy" texture that some others experienced; probably because I cooked it for the right amount of time (about 8 min.).

Chicken Puffs

Reviewed: Sep. 25, 2008

These were too creamy for my family. Next time I will add a bit less cream cheese. I did add celery and mushrooms. That added a nice touch.

Busy Day Barbeque Brisket

Reviewed: Sep. 22, 2008

I gave this recipe 4 stars, simply because it was a little too spicy for my family. Otherwise, it was good and easy. Used a roast because my supermarket did not have the brisket I needed. Next time, I will cut down on the cayenne & cumin; and call ahead so they can have a beef brisket ready for me! Thank you!
